Wow, too much I think
In Response To: "Poor" No More ? ? ? ()

This is a really beautiful vintage (Swiss) Hamilton but it's going to need a new crystal and a full service, I would imagine. That's got to add another $400-$500 to the auction price bringing this close to $2,000. Sure, it's a "Poor man's Heuer" but golly, that was a pretty high price IMHO. Don't get me wrong, I do like the watch and I did follow the auction but wow, Seems like a bunch of people really wanted this watch!
